Our real-time PCR platform supports multiple format options to help research laboratories operate efficiently through fluctuating seasonal monthly and weekly sample volume needs.
How many samples are you expecting to run? Consider your daily and weekly testing volume and throughput needs to find the right solution for your laboratory.
Single tube assays | Plates |
Cards |
OpenArray plates | |
Format | Individual tubes or assay tube sets in a variety of reaction sizes | 96-and 384-well plates with assays pre-spotted into the wells | 384-well microfluidic cards with assays pre-spotted | 3,000 through-holes with assays pre-spotted |
Assay type | Singleplex or Spectral Multiplex | Singleplex or Spectral Multiplex | Singleplex | Spatial-Multiplex |
Typical # of targets | 1 to 5 | 4 to 24 | 24 or 48 | 18 or 56 |
Use case | For smaller panels in any volume (1 to 1000s) | For mid-size panels in mid-throughput (10–50) | For large panels in low throughput (10s) | For mid to large panels in high throughput (48–1000s) |
Your advantage | High flexibility for low throughput | Supports automation for medium throughput | Convenience—no robotics needed | Higher throughput for routine applications or large projects |
Whether you want to modify from an existing design or start with your own target list, we’re here to walk you through the process.
Format | Approximate turnaround time (after order has been placed) |
Single tubes | 5 days |
Cards or plates | 3–5 weeks |
OpenArray plates | 5 weeks |
